Abstract

A thrust reverser for an aircraft propulsion system includes a fixed thrust reverser structure including a wall, a sleeve configured to translate between a first stowed position and a second position, and a blocker door assembly including a plurality of blocker doors. An upstream end of the sleeve is disposed at the wall with the translating sleeve in the first stowed position. A locking assembly includes a locking body and a receiver. Each blocker door includes a body pivotably mounted to the sleeve by a hinge and the locking body. Translation of the sleeve from the first to the second position effects pivoting of the blocker door body from a first stowed position to a second position. In a locked position, the locking body is engaged with the wall and disposed at the receiver. In an unlocked position, the locking body is disengaged with the wall and the receiver.
